Budget 12.5 ETH
- Promote 4 educational workshops about web3 in Gigoia Island, Rio de Janeiro/RJ.
The workshops are divided in 4 stages:
a) Wallets and tokens: first, a “magic trick” makes money disappear… and reappear inside the pocket of an attendee. The instructor explains what are “the secret crypto words”, how they can “control magic internet money”, and how anyone - even kids - can earn, use or store such money.
b) NFTs: the instructor shows attendees how digital wallets can hold other digital stuff. A series of these valuable things have been scattered through the Skate Cuida Institute (QR codes linking to a minting page). A treasure hunt leads attendees to earn their first NFTs.
c) DAO: the instructor shows a site where they can use their NFTs as tickets to join a club. He tells them there is a proposal there where they can vote for a prize that will be distributed either to half the “club”… or to all of its members - depending on how they vote it. The instructor reveals the results (awarding a prize in crypto to every participant) and teaches basic concepts in cooperation and game theory. He tells the audience the workshop was sponsored by a “club”, too - NounsDAO - that collaborates online to do cool stuff in the real world. And incites attendees they can do the same via the club they now belong to.
d) Skate & Lunch: to wrap things up, Bob Burnquist invites the kids for a ride on the Institute’s track, then food and drinks are served for all.
We plan to bring 30 kids in each workshop. The goal is to introduce 120 people to crypto and NFTs via Nouns DAO.
The end goal is to find a format (presentation here) that can be replicated in other communities in a cost-effective way.
The workshops will be conducted by guiriba, a member of Paradigma Education. Paradigma is a crypto research house in Brazil with experience ranging from materials for beginners to courses to analysis for experts.
- Nounify the skateboard track of Gigoia Island, Rio de Janeiro/RJ.
While the workshop takes place, Nouns artwork by Brazilian artists will be painted at the Skate Cuida Institute, where classes are taught by Bob Burnquist.
We will bring a film crew and later deliver a clip registering the workshops and painting action. - Make a donation to the Skate Cuida Institute.
Purchase 3 VR headsets and 3 notebooks for the institute, to support the 4 weekly encounters currently held there, where kids receive cognitive training, skateboarding lessons, food and a safe space to play.
